PROFILE
Silke Schomann
Silke Schomann contributed to the mantidproject/mantid repository by delivering four features and a bug fix over four months, focusing on API deprecation, code quality, and dependency management. She implemented a standardized deprecation framework for Mantid algorithms, providing migration paths and clear documentation to reduce technical debt. Using C++ and YAML, Silke refactored core components for correctness and maintainability, enforcing const-correctness and improving parameter handling. She also upgraded MSlice dependencies and enhanced integration testing, ensuring build reliability and compatibility. Her work emphasized maintainable software engineering practices, improved static analysis hygiene, and streamlined user transitions to updated APIs and workflows.

Jan 1, 2025January 2025 monthly summary for mantid project (mantidproject/mantid repo). Delivered focused code quality improvements and refactoring across MantidSINQ and PoldiPeakCollection, enhancing correctness and maintainability. Key work included enforcing const-correctness, safer parameter passing, improved cloning logic, and terminology normalization from 'peak' to 'item'. Removed outdated static analysis suppressions and updated cppcheck suppression files to align with project standards. These changes reduce technical debt, improve stability, and lay groundwork for faster feature delivery in downstream work.

Dec 1, 2024December 2024: Maintained and strengthened MSlice integration within the Mantid project. Updated MSlice to patch release 2.10.1 in the conda build to improve compatibility and stability. Expanded MSlice test documentation with a new ADS interaction testing section, detailing save, rename, delete, and clear cuts between MSlice and Mantid. These changes reduce regression risk, streamline scientific workflows, and support reliable data analysis for users.

Nov 1, 2024In November 2024, delivered API deprecation for two Mantid algorithms with a migration path to SofQWNormalisedPolygon. Introduced the DeprecatedAlgorithm base class, updated constructors, and published release notes to guide user migration. This work clarifies the API lifecycle, reduces future maintenance burden, and provides a clear path for users to transition to supported functionality.
